  1. Victoria E. Van Wie and Alan M. Gross The Role of Woman’s Explanations for Refusal on Men’s Ability to Discriminate Unwanted Sexual Behavior in a Date Rape Scenario

  2. Introduction • 15% of women have been forced into sexual intercourse by a date (Koss, 1988; Muehlenhard & Linton, 1987). • Women exhibit clear refusal behaviors that are ignored by their partners. • College men rated a female’s asking a man on a date, paying the dating expenses, and her willingness to go to his apartment after a date as indicators of the woman’s desire for sexual discourse (332). • Shotland and Craig argue that men have a comparatively larger sexual appetite.

  3. Method • 190 males- 90.2% Caucasian • 18-38 years • Mean of age: 20.13 years old • Men were divided by their beliefs about women • Listened to audiotapes and were told to signal when the women wanted the man to stop-listen to whole thing • 3 different No’s: Plain NO, Excuse NO, and Relationship NO • Different intimacy levels- kissing to breast grabbing

  4. Reasons Why Women Say No • Absence of emotional involvement • Do not know him well enough • Too soon • Pregnancy/Disease • Distrust • Waiting until marriage • No desire to have sex with him

  5. Measures • Response Latency- length of time it takes men to say women say to stop • Sexual Experience Survey- measure sexual experience of men • Social Desire Scale- questionnaire testing whether person tries to be socially acceptable • Demographic- religion, age, school, and how much they attend church

  6. Difference between the relationship explanation and the marriage and pregnancy explanations

  7. Marriage and pregnancy excuse – seen as “non-negotiable” • Relationship excuse is “negotiable” - increased information regarding the status of relationship would affect the progression of sexual activity (341)

  8. Conclusion • The content of woman’s refusal combined with the level of intimacy at which this explanation is provided may affect how seriously her “NO” will be taken by her partner (343). • Good ways to avoid rape: • Stop at lower intimacy levels- kissing • Give good reason, with explanation • Strong “NO”
